What a first week this has been on our Summer Tour where you, our readers will meet a Plethora of Players in the novels of Shawn Lamb, Mary C. Findley, Pam Funke, and myself, Caryl McAdoo!
Today is the final day of our visit to Allon. From
what we can gather there is a good reason for Shawn Lamb selecting the title
“The Great Battle”. Tensions are running high. We hope to get some answers from
Lieutenant Avatar, aide to Captain Kell.
Thank you for taking the time to join us,
Lieutenant.
You’re
welcome.
I must say, I find Guardians' eyes quite impressive. First
the brilliant gold of Kell's, then the rich mahogany of Dagar's, and now yours. Such
vibrant silver, almost as bright as your sword.
Well, thank
you. I don’t think much about the color. None of us really do, it’s simply a
feature of our creation.
I’ll get right to the point. In the prior
interviews, Kell and Dagar both referred to you, although in decidedly
different tones. Kell spoke in favor while Dagar ... well, Lieutenant, not so much.
I’m not
surprised by Dagar. It’s his troubling attitude that concerns Kell … and me.
Seems to go beyond attitude, don't you think? I mean Dagar mentioned
something about “spying”?
Spying is his
word. Kell sent me to discover if there is any connection between Dagar and
the rogue. That is exactly what I intend to do, with or without Dagar’s
cooperation. However, he’s not the only one being uncooperative.
How so?
Let’s just say
other Trio Leaders are not happy with me following the captain’s orders. They
need to understand, nothing will stop me from learning the truth. Kell sent me
on a mission, and I will complete it.
So Dagar’s attitude is spreading to other Guardians?
Appears so.
Why and where it will lead is the question? What used to be unthinkable just a
few centuries ago may be come reality. That doesn’t bode well for the mortals.
Kell said you find them amusing.
Ay. But there
is nothing amusing about our current situation. Jor’el willing, we can stop it
before the worst happens.
You mean war among the Guardians? Can Allon
withstand such a conflict?
I don’t know.
Nor do any of us want to find out.
(A female voice is heard) Sorry, but I’m going to have to break-up this little show.
Excuse, me, but who are you?
My name is
Wren. And, no, I’m not a warrior. I’m a Guardian huntress, and here to make
sure the Lieutenant stays on course.
You got lost, Lieutenant?
No! Merely
sidetracked to be here. (Avatar looked none-to-pleased at Wren.) You need to work on your timing.
(Wren flashed a lopsided smile.) Only if you give lessons.
One more question, Lieutenant. Is there anything
those of us from outside Allon can do to help?
Pray, and trust the Almighty for the outcome.
Thank you, Lieutenant. Wren, pleased to make your acquaintance.
Well, it appears our trip to Allon uncovered more than we expected. All we can do is see if what Shawn Lamb chronicles in “The Great Battle” will have a favorable outcome.
